HB 3505: Remembering Heather Snively and John Stephen

in

On the evening of Friday, June 5th, 21-year-old Heather Snively’s life was taken in a Tigard home in a tragic and horrifying way. If this burden of sorrow weren’t already enough for Heather’s family, they must also grieve the loss of her unborn child, John Stephen, who was cut from her womb at eight months. Korena Roberts, the alleged killer, met Heather through Craigslist and the two had arranged to trade baby items. Neither Heather nor her baby John Stephen survived their meeting.

Korena Roberts, the alleged killer, met Heather through Craigslist. She had just recently moved to Oregon from the east coast with her fiancé, Chris Popp. Having a mutual interest in baby items, the two women agreed to meet.

Starr’s perspective on the value of life has also been known among his colleagues, but his determination has never been stronger than it was in the 2009 session. After the tragic murder of eight months pregnant Heather Snively in Washington County, Senator Starr worked up until the final days of the session to secure legislation to recognize the murder of a pregnant woman as a more serious crime. Heather Snively and her unborn son, John Stephen Snively, will forever be remembered by this new Oregon law.
